that steal is still more cap space then we have and where was he playing? Haula takes that deal if we traded strome and he had a chance to play with panarin to earn a bigger deal next year. Not to be bottom 6 depth insurance here

1. No cap space
2. Why are we assuming Haula wants to sign with the Rangers?

Yeah. I know people from New York think that New York is the best city in the world but not everyone shares that sentiment.
Not saying it's shit or anything, but there's a lot more nuance to it

Is anyone actually doing this chief? Lol
This is flatly incorrect. Your second point is a distinct possibility though
Overexaggerating but the insignificant amounts of money that ruins their day is just comical.
I'm from Upstate NY. Have family on LI. Schooled downstate. Did my time. NYC is probably the best city in the world for all the amenities offered but like I said, I did my time there. My other family is out west (WA, CA, HI) and I'd rather be there 9/10 times over NY. Very happy about Seattle getting a team as I am there much more often than NY.
Some players just don't want to play here and that's totally fine.

Agreed. I was going to say the same thing. You don’t show up to a Google interview wearing a Yahoo hat. If your employed by someone then you shouldn’t do it. If you do it in front of them it’s not just a lack of awareness but a lack of common sense. I got the impression he turned the organization off early on and never fully recovered.

Maybe he preferred Nashville? It’s not like NYR gets a right to match every free agent deal. Not to mention their tax rate is considerably lower in TN if I’m not mistaken...

My favorite is when people argue that a $1.1m deal should have been a $900k deal.

the point was the difference in pay. Nothing funnier then when a guy signs for like 2.55 mil and someone posts he’s overpaid cause THEY think he should get 2.45 mil
A+ name change

You are correct, sir.
I understand if we are unable to make a beneficial move that would require $75k in cap space, but that's such a highly specific case that doesn't exist, therefore I don't care that we singed JMFJ for $1.15m.

Johnson's contract is for 1 year. It does not limit us in how we construct the team. He's insurance in case our prospects don't make the team

No, but Tennessee has tax interest and dividents. It's not as clear cut as WA, NV, TX and FL for instance
